    Abstract: The consumption current of a TCAM device is reduced. A semiconductor device includes multiple sub-arrays each including a TCAM cell array. Each sub-array searches the corresponding part of the input search data. Each sub-array outputs the search result indicative of a match for every entry without searching, when the corresponding first control signal is activated.

    Abstract: A semiconductor integrated circuit device has a negative voltage generation circuit provided at each power supply circuit unit for six memory macros. Therefore, the response with respect to variation in a negative voltage is increased. In a standby mode, a negative voltage supply line for the six memory macros is connected by a switch circuit, and only a negative voltage generation circuit of one power supply circuit unit among six negative voltage generation circuits of the six power supply circuit units is rendered active. Thus, increase in standby current can be prevented.

    Abstract: The present invention makes it possible to form a circuit configuration that is capable of executing a keyword search at an increased speed while suppressing an increase in the memory capacity of a content-addressable memory. A semiconductor device according to an aspect of the present invention searches an input data string for a predesignated keyword, and includes a first content-addressable memory that stores a partial keyword corresponding to a predetermined number of data beginning with the first data of the keyword, a second content-addressable memory that stores the entirety of the keyword, and a control circuit that is coupled to the first content-addressable memory and to the second content-addressable memory. When a portion matching the partial keyword is detected in the input data string by a search in the first content-addressable memory, the second content-addressable memory executes a search on search data extracted from the input data string.
